Indian automobile manufacturers have reported mixed sales results for September, with some companies exceeding expectations and others falling short, as per data released on Tuesday.
Maruti Suzuki India, a leading player in the Indian automobile industry, witnessed growth in total sales but failed to meet Street estimates. The company’s mini segment sales saw a notable decrease, which was offset by a significant increase in its utility vehicles segment.
Tata Motors (NYSE:) experienced a decline in domestic passenger sales, but outperformed analysts’ predictions primarily due to its electric vehicles (EVs). This came despite a lackluster performance in commercial vehicle sales.
Mahindra & Mahindra reported an increase in total sales, surpassing estimates. The company’s performance was bolstered by robust demand across various segments.
Other companies such as Hero MotoCorp, TVS Motor Company, and Eicher Motors also disclosed their September sales figures. Hero MotoCorp is projecting strong future demand, while TVS Motor reported solid performance in the two-wheeler segment.
Eicher Motors’ subsidiary Royal Enfield met analysts’ expectations, and Volvo (OTC:) Eicher Commercial Vehicles (VECV) noted an increase in total sales.
These mixed results come amidst a challenging market environment for the automobile industry in India. It remains to be seen how these manufacturers will navigate the evolving landscape and consumer preferences in the coming months.
